6.3. Feed units
The feed devices are equipped with a push-groove mechanism. In seed and fertiliser drills with a
gearbox, the basic adjustment of the feed quantities is carried out by means of screw-type
control wheels by altering the effective length of the groove. Fine-tuning takes place in the
machine’s transmission by adjusting the control lever of the gearbox.
In seed and fertiliser drills without a gearbox, the rough adjustment of the feed quantity is
carried out by means of chain gears and ne-tuning by means of screw-type control wheels by
altering the effective length of the groove.
The feeders are powered by the machine's left running gear via a chain. In the feeder, there is a
shut-off plate between the feeder chamber and the hopper to completely shut off the feed of
the feeder chamber. Shutting part of the feeder with a shut-off plate allows seeding with
incomplete working width or, for example, increasing row spacing by seeding with only every
second coulter.
6.4. Seeding quantities
The seeding tables that contain the basic values for adjusting the seeding quantity are located
under the transmission cover in the seed and fertiliser drill. The seeding tables for different
varieties are presented below.
